Rear Suspension Upgrade
Ok I did not actually di this one myself being I was missing a few of the tools needed.
Like a slow speed drill & a heavy enough jack to do a minimal rear end lift to unload the leaf springs.
But here is what I hope to love as a simple suspension upgrade.

Have any of you heard about this? :confused013:
I just installed it & can't wait to see how it works out once I install my Camper again.

Jeff Wood is the manger.
Located in Stanton Ca. 714-898-1827
Seems these guys do lots of custom work for people?


Here I laid out the parts before heading to there shop.

& heres another look at them with contents removed from the zip lock bags.

The whole job took roughly 1 & 1/2 hours?


So here is my Factory leaf set up before the Mods.

& heres how it looks in the Unloaded position.

Seems the way it works it pre-loading the over loads adding the stability needed to give a better ride.
With the weight of my Lance Camper & with my future plans to tow my open car trailer with my heavy Bronco.
I'm sure these will provide a Great help! :7:
I love the simplicity of the design, pull the cotter pin & then remove the stud & swing the plate into place to help the load & simply replace the stud & secure it with the pin.


I can't wait to get the camper back on there & test these mods out, I've seen the videos & can completely understand the concept.
Well if I already had the hole drilled in my Leafs this would been EXTREMELY SIMPLE!
Yet when drilling a Leaf spring you do need a slow speed drill & a way to apply strong pressure.

Now if I could only find a 3500lb pallet to go test it out myself I'f be even more excited.

As you see from these videos there are about 3 different versions that I am aware of?

I wonder if adding this as well might be a good idea? :shrug:

Are any of you familiar with this product & maybe can give your opinions?
